The blocking of the BGS barracs (border police)

Fighting the Border Police

The border police barracs was blocked on Tuesday evening and it was succesful.
It was initiated by a handful of people and not made known to the camp - a kind of simultaneous action. First was the border campaign between German and Poland that was the morning period and the show continued till the evening period after much fun with the two border policeforces, we decided to leave. Simultaneously another group were already at the station with few people about 50 initially, later they became 250 persons. The aim was to block the border police during change of duty from morning shift to afternoon shift. Regardless of the risk involved. This group of persons organized themselves the day before the action and carried it out accordingly. The first group of persons left the camp quietly after informing the press of their intention and what they intended to do. Then more people were mobilized to join them which increases the number of persons there. At the venue the first thing they did was to shut down the gate to prevent entry. Thereby making it uncomfortable for the workers of the morning shift to go home and the afternoon shift to start work.The gate bell was damaged which become possible for the people outside the gate to hear the conversation which was going in the premises. Some of the word from the police is "What shall we do. We are stranded now. We can as well force our way out." Because of the presence of the pressmen neither the enforcement troup outside can do little or nothing. After four hours of hostage from 5pm to 9pm they decided to quit the area and came back to the camp. Though the action was not made known to the camp as usual it was still part of the border campaign action.
